       Alias support in CREATE_TABLE and DESCRIBE_TABLE
       Default support in CREATE_TABLE

We now fully support ALIASes and DEFAULT values for columns.

ALIASES are useful to relate Analytical Table columns to their corresponding ones in the Operational Tables.
They could also be used to support names in an alternative language.
Or to provide longer (or shorter) column names. NOTE however that we will soon provide DESCRIPTION as a column feature too, with the specific purpose of providing a longer textual description of the column than then name.

Please refer for the attached examplet screenshot for details. 
This example will be available from the website too.

We will make RC1.33 available from the website probably tomorrow.
